Hellenic Cables Leads Greek Island Interconnection Project
Hellenic Cables (official site) strengthens its role in Greece’s energy transformation with the new Hellenic Cables Greek island interconnection project. The company signed a major contract with Greece’s Independent Power Transmission Operator (IPTO) (official site) to design, manufacture, and install high-voltage cables connecting seven islands to the national grid.
Expanding Greece’s Power Network with Hellenic Cables
Under the agreement, Hellenic Cables will supply 150 kV high-voltage onshore and offshore cables and their accessories. The work also includes cable installation, laying, protection, joints, and final testing.
This collaboration helps Greece strengthen its electric infrastructure while improving power stability for remote island communities. Moreover, it supports the nation’s goal to transition toward more sustainable power generation.
The Hellenic Cables Greek Island Interconnection Will Link Seven Islands
This project forms part of the fourth and final phase of the Cyclades interconnection program. It will connect Milos and Serifos to the continental Electricity Transmission System and indirectly improve power supply to Folegandros, Ios, Kimolos, Sifnos, and Kythnos.
Once operational, the interconnection will significantly enhance power quality and reliability. In addition, it will enable the gradual retirement of aging and polluting power plants, advancing Greece’s clean energy objectives.
Local Production and Sustainable Manufacturing at Corinth Plant
Hellenic Cables will produce these state-of-the-art cables at its Corinth plant, one of Europe’s most advanced cable manufacturing facilities. By manufacturing locally, the company supports Greek industrial growth and reduces environmental impact through efficient, responsible production methods.
This new milestone in the Hellenic Cables Greek island interconnection project reinforces the company’s position as a leading European cable supplier supporting sustainable, interconnected energy systems.
